ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Doris Kim Sung - Architect
Doris Kim Sung is a biology student turned architect interested in thermo-bimetals, smart materials that respond dynamically to temperature change.

Why you should listen

Architect Doris Kim Sung asks: Why can't building materials be more adaptable? Why can't they function more like clothing, or even human skin? Having studied biology at Princeton University intending to go to medical school, Sung applies principles of biology to her work as an assistant professor of architecture at the University of Southern California. She explores architecture as an extension of the body, challenging the notion that buildings ought to be static and climate-controlled. Rather, they should be able to adapt to their environment through self-ventilation. In November 2011, Sung exhibited her art installation "Bloom" in Silver Lake, Los Angeles. The installation is 20 feet tall and made with 14,000 completely unique pieces of thermo-bimetal, a smart material made of two different metals laminated together. This metal is dynamic and responsive, curling as air temperatures rise, resulting in a beautiful sculpture that breathes.

Moderne zgrade s prozorima od poda do stropa pružaju spektakularne poglede, ali zahtijevaju mnogo energije za hlađenje. Doris Kim Sung radi s termo-bimetalima, pametnim materijalima koji se ponašaju poput ljudske kože, dinamični su, reagiraju i mogu zakloniti sobu od sunca te sami je prozračivaju.

I was one of those kidsdjeca that, everysvaki time I got in the carautomobil,
0

Bila sam jedna od one djece
koja su morala spustiti prozor
00:19
I basicallyu osnovi had to rollsvitak down the windowprozor.

svaki put kad bi bila u autu.
00:22
It was usuallyobično too hotvruće, too stuffyzačepljen or just too smellysmrdljiv,
2
7031
4212
Obično je bilo prevruće,
pretijesno ili jednostavno prezagušljivo,
00:27
and my fatherotac would not let us use the airzrak conditionerregenerator.
3
11243
2354
a moj nam otac nije dao da koristimo klimu.
00:29
He said that it would overheatpregrijavanje the enginemotor.
4
13597
2757
Rekao je da bi to pregrijalo motor.
00:32
And you mightmoć rememberzapamtiti, some of you,
5
16354
1648
Možda se neki od vas sjećaju
00:33
how the carsautomobili were back then, and it was
6
18002
1900
kakvi su auti bili tada,
00:35
a commonzajednička problemproblem of overheatingpregrijavanja.
7
19902
2366
problem pregrijavanja bio je čest.
00:38
But it was alsotakođer the signalsignal that cappedkapom the use,
8
22268
4020
Ali to je bio i signal koji je ograničio korištenje,
00:42
or overuseprekomjerno, of energy-consumingenergetski zahtjevno devicesuređaji.
9
26288
4422
odnosno pretjerano korištenje
uređaja koji troše energiju.
00:46
Things have changedpromijenjen now. We have carsautomobili that we take acrosspreko countryzemlja.
10
30710
3039
Stvari su se sada promijenile. Imamo aute
kojima putujemo na drugi kraj zemlje.
00:49
We blasteksplozija the airzrak conditioninguređaj the entirečitav way,
11
33749
3161
Raspalimo klimu cijelim putem
00:52
and we never experienceiskustvo overheatingpregrijavanja.
12
36910
1576
i motor se nikada ne pregrije.
00:54
So there's no more signalsignal for us to tell us to stop.
13
38486
2987
Dakle, nema više signala
koji nam govori da stanemo.
00:57
Great, right? Well, we have similarsličan problemsproblemi in buildingsgrađevine.
14
41473
5618
Odlično, zar ne? Slične probleme imamo u zgradama.
01:02
In the pastprošlost, before airzrak conditioninguređaj, we had thickgust wallszidovi.
15
47091
3466
U prošlosti, prije klima uređaja,
imali smo debele zidove
01:06
The thickgust wallszidovi are great for insulationizolacija. It keepsčuva the interiorunutrašnjost
16
50557
2679
koji su odlični za izolaciju. Održavaju unutrašnjost
01:09
very coolsvjež duringza vrijeme the summertimeLjetno doba, and warmtoplo duringza vrijeme the wintertimezimi,
17
53236
3518
vrlo hladnom tijekom ljeta, a toplom tijekom zime.
01:12
and the smallmali windowsprozori were alsotakođer very good because
18
56754
2400
Mali prozori su također bili jako dobri
01:15
it limitedograničen the amountiznos of temperaturetemperatura transferprijenos
19
59154
2591
jer su ograničavali prijelaz topline
01:17
betweenizmeđu the interiorunutrašnjost and exteriorvanjski.
20
61745
2467
između unutrašnjosti i okoline.
01:20
Then in about the 1930s, with the adventDošašće of plateploča glassstaklo,
21
64212
3872
Negdje 1930-ih, s pojavom staklenih ploča,
01:23
rolledvaljane steelželjezo and massmasa productionproizvodnja, we were ableu stanju
22
68084
3396
valjanih limova i masovne proizvodnje, mogli smo
01:27
to make floor-to-ceilingpoda do stropa windowsprozori and unobstructednesmetan viewspregleda,
23
71480
3450
napraviti prozore od poda do stropa
i tako imati neometani pogled
01:30
and with that camedošao the irreversiblenepovratno relianceoslanjanje on
24
74930
3726
a s tim je došlo neizbježno oslanjanje
01:34
mechanicalmehanički airzrak conditioninguređaj to coolsvjež our solar-heatedsolarnim grijanjem spacesprostori.
25
78656
6581
na klimatizacijske uređaje da ohlade
naše suncem ugrijane prostore.
01:41
Over time, the buildingsgrađevine got tallerviši and biggerveći,
26
85237
3104
S vremenom, zgrade su postajale više i veće,
01:44
our engineeringinženjering even better, so that the mechanicalmehanički systemssustavi
27
88341
2641
naše inženjerstvo još bolje,
tako da su mehanički sustavi
01:46
were massivemasivan. They requirezahtijevati a hugeogroman amountiznos of energyenergija.
28
90982
3874
bili ogromni. Zahtijevaju ogromne količine energije.
01:50
They give off a lot of heattoplina into the atmosphereatmosfera,
29
94856
2759
Prenose mnogo topline u atmosferu,
01:53
and for some of you maysvibanj understandrazumjeti the heattoplina islandotoka effectposljedica
30
97615
3200
i neki od vas vjerojatno razumiju
efekt toplinskog otoka
01:56
in citiesgradovi, where the urbanurbani areaspodručja are much more warmtoplo
31
100815
3510
u gradovima, gdje su urbana područja mnogo toplija
02:00
than the adjacentsusjedan ruralruralna areaspodručja,
32
104325
2950
nego okolna ruralna područja,
02:03
but we alsotakođer have problemsproblemi that, when we loseizgubiti powervlast,
33
107275
3254
ali također postoje problemi da, kad nestane struje,
02:06
we can't openotvoren a windowprozor here, and so
34
110529
2761
ne možemo otvoriti prozor
02:09
the buildingsgrađevine are uninhabitablepogodan za život and have to be madenapravljen vacantprazan
35
113290
2814
pa zgrade postaju nenaseljive i mora ih se napustiti
02:12
untildo that airzrak conditioninguređaj systemsistem can startpočetak up again.
36
116104
3648
dok se opet ne pokrene klimatizacijski sustav.
02:15
Even worsegore, with our intentionnamjera of tryingtežak to make buildingsgrađevine
37
119752
4055
Još gore, našu namjeru da zgrade učinimo
02:19
movepotez towardsza a net-zeroNeto-nula energyenergija statedržava, we can't do it
38
123807
4985
nisko energetskim potrošačima ne možemo ostvariti
02:24
just by makingizrađivanje mechanicalmehanički systemssustavi more and more efficientučinkovit.
39
128792
2367
samo tako da mehaničke sustave
učinimo sve učinkovitijima.
02:27
We need to look for something elsedrugo, and we'veimamo gottendobivši ourselvessebe a little bitbit into a rutrutina.
40
131159
3778
Moramo potražiti nešto drugo,
a pomalo smo zapali u rutinu.
02:30
So what do we do here? How do we pullVuci ourselvessebe and digkopati us
41
134937
4251
Pa što da učinimo onda?
Kako da se osvijestimo
02:35
out of this holerupa that we'veimamo dugiskopao?
42
139188
2851
i izađemo iz te rutine?
02:37
If we look at biologybiologija, and manymnogi of you probablyvjerojatno don't know,
43
142039
2909
Ako pogledamo biologiju,
a mnogi od vas vjerovatno ne znaju
02:40
I was a biologybiologija majorglavni before I wentotišao into architecturearhitektura,
44
144948
3656
da sam bila magistar biologije
prije nego sam se upustila u arhitekturu,
02:44
the humanljudski skinkoža is the organorgulje that naturallyprirodno regulatesregulira
45
148604
4389
ljudska je koža organ koji prirodno regulira
02:48
the temperaturetemperatura in the bodytijelo, and it's a fantasticfantastičan thing.
46
152993
3436
temperaturu tijela i to je fantastična stvar.
02:52
That's the first linecrta of defenseodbrana for the bodytijelo.
47
156429
2615
To je prva linija obrane našeg tijela.
02:54
It has porespore, it has sweatznoj glandsžlijezde, it has all these things
48
159044
3209
Ima pore, znojne žlijezde i sve te stvari
02:58
that work togetherzajedno very dynamicallydinamički and very efficientlyefikasno,
49
162253
3418
koje zajedno rade vrlo dinamično i vrlo učinkovito.
03:01
and so what I proposepredložiti is that our buildingzgrada skinskoža
50
165671
2504
Stoga predlažem da bi pokrov naših zgrada
03:04
should be more similarsličan to humanljudski skinkoža,
51
168175
3649
trebao biti sličniji ljudskoj koži,
03:07
and by doing so can be much more dynamicdinamičan, responsiveuzvratni
52
171824
4112
i tad će biti mnogo dinamičniji, osjetljiviji
03:11
and differentiateddiferencirani, dependingovisno on where it is.
53
175936
3256
i razlikovati se, ovisno o tome gdje se nalazi.
03:15
And this getsdobiva me back to my researchistraživanje.
54
179192
1933
To me dovodi natrag do mog istraživanja.
03:17
What I proposedzaprosio first doing is looking at a differentdrugačiji materialmaterijal palettepaleta to do that.
55
181125
5310
Predložila sam da prvo pogledamo drugačiju
paletu materijala s kojima bismo to mogli postići.
03:22
I presentlysada, or currentlytrenutno, work with smartpametan materialsmaterijali,
56
186435
2911
Trenutno radim s pametnim materijalima,
03:25
and a smartpametan thermo-bimetaltermo-bimetal.
57
189346
1719
i pametnim termo-bimetalima.
03:26
First of all, I guessnagađati we call it smartpametan because it requirestraži
58
191065
2912
Prije svega, pretpostavljam da ih možemo
zvati pametnima jer ne zahtijevaju
03:29
no controlskontrole and it requirestraži no energyenergija,
59
193977
2730
nikakvo upravljanje ili energiju,
03:32
and that's a very bigvelika dealdogovor for architecturearhitektura.
60
196707
2663
što je velika stvar za arhitekturu.
03:35
What it is, it's a laminationlaminiranje of two differentdrugačiji metalsmetali togetherzajedno.
61
199370
2814
Ovo je spoj dva različita metala.
03:38
You can see that here by the differentdrugačiji reflectionodraz on this sidestrana.
62
202184
3874
To možete vidjeti ovdje,
odsjaj je drugačiji na ovoj strani.
03:41
And because it has two differentdrugačiji coefficientskoeficijenti of expansionekspanzija,
63
206058
3475
Kako ima dva različita koeficijenta istezanja,
03:45
when heatedgrijani, one sidestrana will expandproširiti fasterbrže than the other
64
209533
3297
kad se zagrije, jedna strana
brže će se rasteći od druge
03:48
and resultproizlaziti in a curlingkovrčanje actionakcijski.
65
212830
3537
i rezultat će biti svijanje metala.
03:52
So in earlyrano prototypesprototipova I builtizgrađen these surfacespovršine to try to see
66
216367
3706
U prvim prototipovima izgradila sam
ove površine kako bih vidjela
03:55
how the curlrotor would reactreagirati to temperaturetemperatura and possiblymožda allowdopustiti
67
220073
4193
kako će savijeni metal reagirati
na temperaturu i možda dopustiti
04:00
airzrak to ventilateprozračivanje throughkroz the systemsistem,
68
224266
3105
prolazak zraka kroz sustav,
04:03
and in other prototypesprototipova did surfacespovršine where the multiplicitymnoštvo
69
227371
3229
u drugim prototipovima
probala sam vidjeti mogu li površine
04:06
of havingima these stripstrake togetherzajedno can try to make
70
230600
2481
s većim brojem povezanih traka postići
04:08
biggerveći movementpokret happendogoditi se when alsotakođer heatedgrijani,
71
233081
4074
veće pomake pri zagrijavanju,
04:13
and currentlytrenutno have this installationmontaža at the MaterialsMaterijala & ApplicationsAplikacija gallerygalerija
72
237155
4064
i trenutno se ova instalacija
nalazi u Galeriji za materijale i primjenu
04:17
in SilverSrebro LakeJezero, closeblizu by, and it's there untildo AugustKolovoz, if you want to see it.
73
241219
3486
u Silver Lakeu, u blizini, i ondje je do kolovoza,
ukoliko je želite vidjeti.
04:20
It's calledzvao "BloomCvatu," and the surfacepovršinski is madenapravljen completelypotpuno
74
244705
2898
Zove se "Cvat" i površina je u potpunosti sačinjena od
04:23
out of thermo-bimetaltermo-bimetal, and its intentionnamjera is to make this canopybaldahin
75
247603
4040
termo-bimetala, a zamisao je da se stvori platno
04:27
that does two things. One, it's a sun-shadingzaštite od sunca deviceuređaj, so that
76
251643
3817
koje čini dvije stvari. Jedna je da služi kao suncobran, tako da
04:31
when the sunsunce hitshitovi the surfacepovršinski, it constrictsme zaboli the amountiznos of sunsunce passingpretjecanje throughkroz,
77
255460
4010
ograniči količinu svjetlosti koja prolazi
kad sunce obasja njegovu površinu,
04:35
and in other areaspodručja, it's a ventilatingozračivanje systemsistem,
78
259470
3369
a s druge strane služi kao sustav za ventilaciju,
04:38
so that hotvruće, trappedzarobljena airzrak underneathispod can actuallyzapravo
79
262839
2153
tako da topao zrak ispod može zapravo
04:40
movepotez throughkroz and out when necessarypotreban.
80
264992
3878
proći i izaći van kad je to potrebno.
04:44
You can see here in this time-lapseprolazak vremena videovideo that the sunsunce,
81
268870
4131
U ovom ubrzanom videu možete vidjeti da na sunce,
04:48
as it movespotezi acrosspreko the surfacepovršinski, as well as the shadehlad,
82
273001
2746
koje prelazi preko povrišine, isto kao i na sjene,
04:51
eachsvaki of the tilespločice movespotezi individuallypojedinačno.
83
275747
2476
svaka traka reagira pojedinačno.
04:54
Keep in mindum, with the digitaldigitalni technologytehnologija that we have todaydanas,
84
278223
2512
Imajte na umu da je s digitalnom tehnologijom koju imamo danas
04:56
this thing was madenapravljen out of about 14,000 pieceskomada
85
280735
3013
ovo napravljeno od oko 14.000 dijelova
04:59
and there's no two pieceskomada alikeslično at all. EverySvaki singlesingl one is differentdrugačiji.
86
283748
4729
i ne postoje dva ista dijela. Svaki je drugačiji.
05:04
And the great thing with that is the factčinjenica that we can calibratekalibriranje
87
288477
2512
I odlično je što možemo kalibrirati
05:06
eachsvaki one to be very, very specificspecifično to its locationmjesto,
88
290989
3999
svaku posebno da bude točno podešena
prema mjestu na kojem se nalazi,
05:10
to the anglekut of the sunsunce, and alsotakođer how the thing actuallyzapravo curlskovrče.
89
294988
4946
prema kutu smjera sunca,
a možemo odrediti i kako će se savijati.
05:15
So this kindljubazan of proofdokaz of conceptkoncept projectprojekt
90
299934
2806
Stoga ova vrsta projekta provjere koncepta
05:18
has a lot of implicationsimplikacije
91
302740
1964
ima mnogo utjecaja
05:20
to actualstvaran futurebudućnost applicationprimjena in architecturearhitektura,
92
304704
3700
na buduću primjenu u arhitekturi,
05:24
and in this casespis, here you see a housekuća,
93
308404
2505
i u ovom slučaju vidite kuću,
05:26
that's for a developerrazvijač in ChinaKina,
94
310909
2433
ona je za poduzetnika u Kini,
05:29
and it's actuallyzapravo a four-storyčetiri priče glassstaklo boxkutija.
95
313342
2744
i to je zapravo staklena kocka na četiri kata.
05:31
It's still with that glassstaklo boxkutija because we still want that visualvidni accesspristup,
96
316086
3837
Još uvijek se vidi da je staklena kocka
jer želimo imati pogled,
05:35
but now it's sheathedobložen with this thermo-bimetaltermo-bimetal layersloj,
97
319923
3882
ali obložena je slojem termo-bimetala.
05:39
it's a screenzaslon that goeside around it, and that layersloj can actuallyzapravo
98
323805
2465
To je zastor koji se omata
oko nje i taj se sloj može
05:42
openotvoren and closeblizu as that sunsunce movespotezi around on that surfacepovršinski.
99
326270
4028
otvarati i zatvarati kako sunce prolazi oko te površine.
05:46
In additiondodatak to that, it can alsotakođer screenzaslon areaspodručja for privacyprivatnost,
100
330298
4562
Uz to, također može pregraditi
prostore radi privatnosti,
05:50
so that it can differentiaterazlikovati from some of the publicjavnost areaspodručja
101
334860
2296
tako da ih može odvojiti od javnih prostora
05:53
in the spaceprostor duringza vrijeme differentdrugačiji timesputa of day.
102
337156
2592
tijekom različitih dijelova dana.
05:55
And what it basicallyu osnovi impliespodrazumijeva is that, in houseskuća now,
103
339748
3263
U suštini to implicira da u kućama sada
05:58
we don't need drapeszavjese or shuttersrolete or blindsžaluzine anymoreviše
104
343011
3417
više ne trebamo zavjese, grilje ili rolete
06:02
because we can sheathkorice the buildingzgrada with these things,
105
346428
2167
jer možemo obložiti zgradu ovakvim stvarima
06:04
as well as controlkontrolirati the amountiznos of airzrak conditioninguređaj you need insideiznutra that buildingzgrada.
106
348595
5567
te kontrolirati količinu klimatizacije
potrebne unutar zgrade.
06:10
I'm alsotakođer looking at tryingtežak to developrazviti some buildingzgrada componentskomponente for the markettržište,
107
354162
3389
Također pokušavam razviti
neke građevinske komponente za tržište.
06:13
and so here you see a prettyprilično typicaltipičan
108
357551
2489
Ovdje vidite prilično običan
06:15
double-glazeds dvostrukim staklom windowprozor panelploča, and in that panelploča,
109
360040
4731

110
364771
2927
između ta dva stakla,
06:23
I'm tryingtežak to work on makingizrađivanje
111
367698
2177
pokušavam postaviti
06:25
a thermo-bimetaltermo-bimetal patternuzorak systemsistem
112
369875
2069
termo-bimetalni sustav,
06:27
so that when the sunsunce hitshitovi that outsideizvan layersloj
113

114
374616
4644
i zagrije tu unutrašnju prazninu, taj termo-bimetal
06:35
will beginpočeti to curlrotor, and what actuallyzapravo will happendogoditi se then
115
379260
2776
početi savijati i na taj način
06:37
is it'llto će startpočetak to blockblok out the sunsunce
116
382036
2303
zakloniti sunce
06:40
in certainsiguran areaspodručja of the buildingzgrada,
117
384339

u određenim dijelovima zgrade,
06:42
and totallypotpuno, if necessarypotreban.
118
386213
1941
ili u potpunosti, ako je to potrebno.
06:44
And so you can imaginezamisliti, even in this applicationprimjena, that
119
388154
2508
Možete zamisliti, čak i u ovoj primjeni, da se
06:46
in a high-risevisokouzlazni buildingzgrada where the panelploča systemssustavi go

121

od kata do kata, čak po 30, 40 katova,
čitava površina
06:54

dependingovisno on how that sunsunce movespotezi acrosspreko and hitshitovi that surfacepovršinski.
123
400296
5459
ovisno o tome kako se sunce kreće
i obasjava tu površinu.
07:01
And these are some laterkasnije studiesstudije that I'm workingrad on
124
405755
2819
Ovdje možete vidjeti zadnja istraživanja
07:04
right now that are on the boardsploče, where you can see,
125
408574
2264
na kojima trenutno radim.
07:06
in the bottomdno right-handdesna ruka cornerugao, with the redcrvena, it's actuallyzapravo

we're tryingtežak to make it movepotez like ciliacilija or eyelashestrepavice.
128
416457
5246
da se kreće poput cilija ili trepavica.
07:17
This last projectprojekt is alsotakođer of componentskomponente.
129
421703
2482
Ovaj posljednji projekt također se tiče komponenata.
07:20
The influenceutjecaj -- and if you have noticedprimijetio, one of my
130
424185
3857
Utjecaj je - možda ste već primijetili, jedna od mojih
07:23
spheressfere of influenceutjecaj is biologybiologija -- is from a grasshopperSkakavac.
131
428042
3576
utjecajnih sfera je biologija - došao od skakavaca.
07:27
And grasshoppersskakavci have a differentdrugačiji kindljubazan of breathingdisanje systemsistem.
132
431618
2607
Skakavci imaju drugačiji dišni sustav od našeg.
07:30
They breathedisati throughkroz holesrupe in theirnjihov sidesstrane calledzvao spiraclesspiracles,
133
434225
3402
Oni dišu preko otvora na bokovima
koji se zovu stigme,
07:33
and they bringdonijeti the airzrak throughkroz and it movespotezi throughkroz theirnjihov systemsistem to coolsvjež them down,
134
437627
3490
preko njih zrak ulazi
i prolazi kroz njihov sustav te ih hladi.
07:37
and so in this projectprojekt, I'm tryingtežak to look at how we can
135
441117
3382
U ovom projektu, proučavam kako
07:40
considerrazmotriti that in architecturearhitektura too, how we can bringdonijeti
136
444499
2182
primijeniti to u arhitekturi, kako dovesti
07:42
airzrak throughkroz holesrupe in the sidesstrane of a buildingzgrada.
137
446681
2666
zrak preko otvora na stranama zgrada.
07:45
And so you see here some earlyrano studiesstudije of blocksblokovi,
138
449347
2973
Ovdje vidite neka rana proučavanja blokova,
07:48
where those holesrupe are actuallyzapravo comingdolazak throughkroz,
139
452320
2513
kroz koje rupe zapravo prolaze u cijelosti,
07:50
and this is before the thermo-bimetaltermo-bimetal is appliedprimijenjen,
140
454833
3720
i ovo je prije nego se primijeni termo-bimetal,
07:54
and this is after the bimetalBimetalni is appliedprimijenjen. Sorry, it's a little
141
458553
2699
a ovo je nakon njegove primjene.
Ispričavam se, malo je
07:57
hardteško to see, but on the surfacespovršine, you can see these redcrvena arrowsstrelice.
142
461252
3208
teško primijetiti, ali na površini
možete vidjeti ove crvene strelice.
08:00
On the left, it's when it's coldhladno and the thermo-bimetaltermo-bimetal
143
464460
3178
Lijevo je prikaz kad je hladno, tada je termo-bimetal
08:03
is flatravan so it will constrictstisnuti airzrak from passingpretjecanje throughkroz the blocksblokovi,
144
467638
3602
ravan pa sprečava prolazak zraka kroz blokove,
08:07
and on the right, the thermo-bimetaltermo-bimetal curlskovrče
145
471240
2040
a desno se termo-bimetal savija
08:09
and allowsomogućuje that airzrak to passproći throughkroz, so those are two differentdrugačiji
146
473280
3546
i dozvoljava zraku da prođe. To su dvije različite
08:12
componentskomponente that I'm workingrad on, and again,
147
476826
1816
komponente na kojima radim, i to je opet
08:14
it's a completelypotpuno differentdrugačiji thing, because you can imaginezamisliti
148
478642
2312
sasvim druga stvar, jer možete zamisliti
08:16
that airzrak could potentiallypotencijalno be comingdolazak throughkroz the wallszidovi
149
480954
2727
da bi zrak mogao dolaziti kroz zidove
08:19
insteadumjesto of openingotvor windowsprozori.
150
483681
2881
umjesto kroz otvorene prozore.
08:22
So I want to leavenapustiti you with one last impressionutisak about
151
486562
2688
Želim vas ostaviti s još jedim posljednjim dojmom o

i preko vikenda nema nikoga
da pali i gasi regulatore,
08:39
or when there's a powervlast outageprekid rada, and you have

ovi termo-bimetali

ABOUT THE SPEAKER
Doris Kim Sung - Architect
Doris Kim Sung is a biology student turned architect interested in thermo-bimetals, smart materials that respond dynamically to temperature change.

Why you should listen

Architect Doris Kim Sung asks: Why can't building materials be more adaptable? Why can't they function more like clothing, or even human skin? Having studied biology at Princeton University intending to go to medical school, Sung applies principles of biology to her work as an assistant professor of architecture at the University of Southern California. She explores architecture as an extension of the body, challenging the notion that buildings ought to be static and climate-controlled. Rather, they should be able to adapt to their environment through self-ventilation. In November 2011, Sung exhibited her art installation "Bloom" in Silver Lake, Los Angeles. The installation is 20 feet tall and made with 14,000 completely unique pieces of thermo-bimetal, a smart material made of two different metals laminated together. This metal is dynamic and responsive, curling as air temperatures rise, resulting in a beautiful sculpture that breathes.
